| Obverse description | The obverse presents a vivid maritime vignette in blue, purple, and black, enclosed within a decorative border with rounded corners. A sailing vessel navigates turbulent waves in the upper portion of the scene, while a sea serpent with a spiny dorsal crest emerges dramatically from the rocky foreground at lower left. The place name 'SÜSEL' appears in stylized Art Nouveau lettering along the top arch of the frame, with the legend 'DER KIRCHE ZU STRANDUNGSDES TAUFSTEINS' arranged vertically along the side borders; series designation and serial number are printed above the vignette. |

| Reverse description | The reverse is executed in warm golden-ochre, violet, and brown tones in an expressive Art Nouveau style. A rural harvest landscape forms the central vignette, framed by two arching sheaves of ripe wheat that meet at the apex; a thatched farmhouse sits amid an open field beneath a cloud-filled sky. The denomination legend 'EINE SÜSELER MARK' is set in bold decorative lettering across the top, with the issuer name 'Süsel' and date '1921' integrated into the lower foreground of the vignette. A four-line German legal text below the scene states the note's acceptance at all municipal cash offices and its validity period, with two manuscript signatures of the Gemeindevorsteher at the lower right. |
